Ian LeGros Curator RHS Garden Hyde Hall

I joined the Hyde Hall team as an untrained assistant gardener in 1992, was promoted to Garden Superintendent in April 2005 and then to Curator in June 2006. Over the years I have been lucky enough to play a lead role in many of Hyde Hall’s landmark projects including setting out the Farmhouse Garden, the redevelopment of the Queen Mother’s Garden, and the creation of the Millennium Avenue and Wild Wood. Most recently I helped to co-design the new Robinson Garden which was opened in 2007.

Getting ready for the arrival of bee hives

Bee Hive development area

We are delighted that a local bee keeper - Jean Smye - has agreed to house some of her bee hives at Hyde Hall.  The hives will be situated on the area known as the 'Gateway to the Countryside' (just beyond the Robinson Garden) and final preparations are taking place in readiness for their arrival.

Jean is a regular at Hyde Hall and can be found selling her produce at our farmers' markets.  She will also be coming along to our three family fun days on 14, 20 and 27 August where she will be able to give advice on bee keeping.
